Unit 1 Flashcards
Paramecium is an example of what grades of organization?
protoplasmic
Volvox is an example of what grades of organization?
cellular
Jellyfish (Cnidarians) is an example of what grades of organization?
cell-tissue
Planaria is an example of what grades of organization?
tissue-organ
Any plane passing through the center divides a body into equivalent, or mirrored, halves, rather like cutting a ball in half.
spherical symmetry
The body of the organism can be divided into similar halves by more than 2 planes passing thru their longitudinal axis
Radial symmetry
two ends of the radial symmetry
oral surface and aboral surface
No anterior and posterior end and can interact with their environment in all directions
radial symmetry
Only 2 planes passing thru longitudinal axis can produce mirrored halves
biradial symmetry
Comb jellies are an example of what symmetry
biradial symmetry
The sagittal plane, passing through the longitudinal axis, divides mirrored halves — right and left
bilateral symmetry
transverse plane
anterior posterior
coronal plane
dorsal and ventral
ssagittal plane
left n right
denotes the chest region or area associated with the anterior pair of appendages
pectoral
